Regis “Rougarou” Prograis (29-3, 24 KO) returns after a ring away from Credit One Arena Arena in Chicago, Illinois against Joseph “Jojo” Diaz (34-7-1, 15 KOS). His last game was last year against Jack Catterall, who lost for the second straight time, which was tough.

As for Jojo, he had eight rounds in Tijuana, Mexico on June 21, where he won with a unanimous decision. The competition will compete at 142 pounds.
Rougarou is a naturally larger fighter and should be physically bigger and stronger. Jojo has previously fought within the ultra-lightweight limit but has performed poorly in this weight. His best performance close to this weight limit was eight games against Jerry Perez, a game he won by unanimous decision.
Regis is ready and ready to compete, and after a long training camp, he is ready to take part in the show. The two-time champion is seeking to consolidate his legacy in the sport and says he wants to be a three-time champion if possible, but is seeking more to build his boxing legacy. For his opponent, it is difficult for ordinary opponents to defend, and it is difficult for ordinary opponents to defend.
The land rate is 20.6%, about 7.9 punches per turn, both categories are in the top ten (Compubox). For JoJo, Prograis will not only be challenging in defense, but also for Diaz, the offense is difficult. Although Jojo is 6 years younger than Prograis, his war corpse may not resist the decent power Regis.
Although both fighters are known for their speeds, the Rougarou seems to keep it on the edge. He also has the advantage of three inches, which he will use to control the range. “It’s done a long camp, it’s been a long tough camp. For me, it’s just time, you know what I’m talking about. I made all the sacrifices, um… I trained my ass for that, yes, it’s time. Rougarou has the key advantage in the game and he wants Diaz to go all out, “Jojo is hungry now, you know.” He is suffering a lot of losses now.
This could be Jojo’s last big chance, so he has to take advantage of it and do his best. He had acknowledged previous training issues in the past.
The expectations of the game, but he changed and had a new dedication to the sport. The match will be a co-chair event for Jr. Oscar Duarte-Kenneth Sims.
